I have been cleaning my Wii with AnyTitle Deleter, it's a great application to quickly free up alot of space. I have deleted stuff like the original (1.0) PhotoChannel, and the 1.1 channel still works, so that gave me a few more free blocks without losing functionality.

But now I am wondering: In the "System Titles" section, all the IOS, BC, MIOS and System Menus are listed. Which am I able to remove, and will this give me more free blocks?

Some things I've noticed is that the "brick protection" doesn't let me delete the current IOS in use (this was 30 for me). The strange thing is, it would let me delete IOS51, but then I know that some apps/games will complain because IOS51 is needed.

On the other hand, I can imagine that IOS9 could be safely removed (this was the very first IOS) without games complaining.

Does anyone know if it is of any use to delete IOSes, will it give me more free blocks, and: What IOSes are needed for current games (or in another question: Which IOSes can I safely remove?) ?

great idea if you want to play originals...
Wich IOS is loaded when you start Gecko OS? Because I can play my original Zelda but I removed IOS9

geckoos uses the ios which the game disc needs. so, actually geckoos shouldn't boot zelda after ios9 was removed. maybe it has a fallback to a different ios.

Technical Jargon

Gecko OS/Gecko Region Free was created with the homebrew libogc library. No certs, TMD, Tik, keys or other Nintendo copyright material were used or attached in the file, making it a pure homebrew release. No Datel code was used either, so please don't call this a clone etc as this and Freeloader work in completely different ways.

The decryption is done by the hardware, not in software and the correct IOS version of the game booting is selected and used. This is done by reading the information off the DVD using the low level read commands and then passed back to the starlet.

My own apploader was written, and will completely ignore the update partition, no patching is done except a region flag which is required.

Is there a list anywhere of what IOSes are in the Wii? (i.e fresh from the factory)

You could have a look on http://wiibrew.org/ or http://hackmii.com/ as that's the sort of thing they cover from time to time. However, different Wiis will come with different things, depending on when it was bought.

Actually you could delete IOS16 if it exists, it is the one used for the debug disc from Nintendo and a few select homebrew apps (it is signed by Nintendo but retains the signing bug so is good for downgrading on otherwise locked systems).

Other than that my entire IOS collection zipped (they do not compress well) is about 30 megs, later ones clock slightly under 2 megs.
